India records lowest tariff in solar-plus-storage tender
Business Standard
|September 20, 2025
India witnessed the lowest-ever tariff for supply of power from a solar-plus-storage project on Friday, with the Madhya Pradesh government receiving tariffs as low as %2.73 and %2.79 per Kilowatt Hour (KwH) for the two units of its 440 Megawatt Morena Solar Park. The reverse bidding was continuing on Friday at press time.
It is the first time in India that a tariff below %3 per unit has been achieved fora Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy (FDRE) project. It is also the first time that a project will provide the same level of supply — 220 Mw — during both peak hours and normal solar generation hours.
“This is also the first solar-plus-storage project in the country with assured annual availability of 95 per cent supply,” Manu Shrivastava, additional chief secretary, new and renewable energy, Madhya Pradesh, told Business Standard.
